It’s big news for patients looking for mid face facial rejuvenation and volume restoration. Juvéderm Voluma XC, the newest injectable filler used to treat age-related volume loss, has arrived on the U.S. market!
“‘New’ is an interesting way to describe this product,” says Dr. Adam Mamelak, Canadian and U.S. board-certified dermatologist that practices at Sanova Dermatology in Austin. “We’ve been using it for years!”
It’s true. While Juvéderm Voluma is new to the United States, it has been approved fro use in Europe, Canada and other countries around the world for a number of years. Dr. Mamelak recently relocated to Texas from Toronto, Canada where he treated numerous patients for age-related volume loss.
With years of experience using Juvéderm Voluma in Canada, his transition brings advanced cosmetic techniques to a new patient population eager for effective mid-face rejuvenation.
For patients in Austin, it means access to a physician well-versed in international standards of care, especially with products like Voluma that are only now gaining traction in the U.S. His relocation ensures that patients benefit from tried-and-tested treatments long recognized abroad, now delivered with local convenience and a personalized touch.
Behind the scenes, professional transitions in the medical field involve far more than just updating a business card. From transporting delicate dermatological equipment to setting up a functional, welcoming clinic environment, the logistics require precision, care, and reliability. Many healthcare providers in similar situations seek out an affordable moving company that understands the sensitivity of medical relocations—companies that go beyond basic transport to offer coordinated support tailored to high-stakes industries.
With the right relocation partner, the move becomes not just manageable but empowering, allowing physicians like Dr. Mamelak to focus on what truly matters: delivering exceptional care from day one in their new community.
Voluma is the newest member of the Juvéderm family and is specifically designed to treat the cheeks and mid face. This injectable filler smoothes wrinkles and restores contour to the cheeks ultimately providing you with a more youthful, rejuvenating look.
“It was one of my ‘go to’s’ for mid face rejuvenation,” claims Dr. Miriam Hanson, a U.S. trained dermatologist that spent 3 1/2 years practicing dermatology and aesthetic medicine in Toronto, Canada at one of the top cosmetic practices in the country.
“The position and shape of our cheek actually changes over time,” says Dr. Hanson.”With a little bit of time and gravity, our cheeks tend to fall, causing a hollowness in the mid face, but also contributing to or even accentuating other age-related changes on the face such as prominent smile lines, marionette lines and jowls.”
JuvédermVoluma XC contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a natural, hydrating substance found in the skin. The function of HA in the skin is to bind water, and ultimately gives the skin its plumpness. As we age, we produce less HA causing our skin to lose volume.
Juvéderm Voluma replaces the HA that we naturally lose as we age, providing a fuller, youthful appearance. Also, Juvéderm Voluma is safe to use and is the first and only filler approved by the FDA specifically for the treatment of the mid face and cheeks.
“It’s a highly effective way to restore the youthful contours of our cheeks that we lose over time,” claims Dr. Mamelak.
Clinical studies show that Juvéderm Voluma provides lasting effects for up to 2 years. Side effects associated with Juvéderm Voluma are similar to other HA dermal fillers and the procedure well-tolerated. Side effects can include tenderness, bruising, swelling, pain, itching, and discoloration such as redness, which for the most part resolve after 24 hours.
